Perhaps all UK subscribers can put their names on this thread. Depending on how many are interested and where we are all based,we might be able to get something together in the not so distant future?

Oh yeah, I forgot, I can bring the wife I suppose..! obv she's a browncoat too...

So thats 7 so far, 3 of which are in the Manchester area, (which also meets RUSALKI99's preference for a northern venue)..may I suggest this could be the ideal place for such an event..?!

Amanda and Neil here! Hampshire based. Do bike rallies most weekends, all weathers! Used to travelling! I do bits and bobs for local charities. Neil's Mam runs a charity 'KenyaAid'. We help out on the stall or whatever when we can.

Can strap tents and sleeping bags to bike and travel. Send details and we'll see what we can do.

Banbury here. But can travel :-)

Oh and I'd probably bring the family...6 of us, all Browncoats :-)

I may be able to put you in touch with a few other folk who are also looking into this (or at least those who have done it before who could give useful advice. The CSTS forum is also a good source for advice) Still early, but you can never start planning this early enough. The "Phantom Screening/Shindig" model can also work if doing it officially is too much (Everyone who shows watches the film as a private showing and sticks a fiver in the pot for Equality Now. Small, but potentially effective if enough folk do it. I managed to get £65 last year)

Vera over on the UK Board is trying to do something down in Bristol and has registered this with CSTS, so those further south may want to look into that.

Further to my earlier reply, as well as the Bristol CSTS in September, there are now 2 more official CSTS screenings at Warwick (which I went to last year, was much fun) and a new one at Nottingham University, run by the SF&F Society.

There are always rumours of a London one, but nothing solid so far this year AFAIK. Similarly for Oxford and Leicester.

The Oxford shindigs have kinda faded a bit, which is a shame, but the Browncoats are there. Good to see some folk here too :-)

I'm certainly planning on attending the Warwick one again this year (4th July) with the shindig to follow at a nice bar in town (complete with Firefly Cocktails!)

Could you specify dates on all of those? I had great difficulty trying to find any date info on any of those sites.

All the dates are be on the sites linked from the CSTS site and in the Events section of the CSTS site (can you not see it?) It's all there.

Warwick is Sat 4th July (as I already said)
Bristol is Sat 26th September
Nottingham is 16th June (a Tuesday, but this is a University based event mainly relying on local students I imagine)

There is a hint of a London one, a sniff of a Glasgow one, but that is all. Have not heard anything remotely solid about either of these (like nothing other than a couple of posts on the UK board, nor from Leicester where Peepicheep did one last year.)

If I do anything this year in Oxford it will be non public (below the radar if you will: work based only) but there's nothing to stop anyone from doing a "Phantom Screening" like me anywhere you like. You can even show Dr Horrible with permission as long as you notify CSTS at lest 2 weeks beforehand and all profits go to Equality Now. I put last year's raffle money into the Warwick fund. As long as it ends up with EN, use your imagination, what's to stop you?

But I'd always encorage anything like this to be in *support* of an official screening, not an alternative.

EITHIL


Looks like someone's beaten me to advertising our CSTS showing here!

I'm Eithil, and I'm in charge of Nottingham's Can't Stop The Serenity event this year. It's on the 16th of June, which is indeed a Tuesday, but it's not just for students - it starts at 6.30pm so hopefully even people with jobs will be able to make it. (Unfortunately we didn't have much choice with the date - the uni term ends on Friday 19th June, so any later than that and we'd lose half the students, but too much earlier and we'd risk not receiving our raffle shinies from CSTS Global in time!)

So, 16th June, 6.30pm, and tickets cost £5 - you can buy them on the door, and we're hoping to also add a paypal button to our website so you can buy them online beforehand if you prefer. It's being held in room A48 of the Sir Clive Granger building on the Nottingham University main campus - if you check our website, there's maps showing you where it is, and we'll have people and/or signs up on the day to help direct you. Even better, there's a car park right next to the building which is completely free to park in from 5pm onwards!

We'll be selling drinks, sweets and badges at the door too, and there'll be a raffle for lots of shiny Serenity-themed prizes.

I think that's just about everything (last time I tried posting somewhere about this, I forgot to mention the date - d'oh!) - if you have any questions, feel free to email me or just post here. Our website is www.su-web2.nottingham.ac.uk/~scifi/csts.php

Thanks for posting details with the date, as well as that linky which seems much more informative than the ones I found before.

Hey, sorry I missed CSTS, I wasn't actually a Browncoat at all back then. I'm in a small village near the River Tay in Fife (just across from Dundee). That's Scotland, just in case you're ignorant.

Also, I'm a minor. Any events in Scotland coming up I should know about?

Also, we have more guests on the Saturday and several dealers confirmed.
